Shining a spotlight on the importance of emotional well-being for everyone: That’s the goal of Mental Health Awareness Month in May.
Autism and mental health often overlap in ways that can be difficult for families to recognize. Experts at Easterseals Crossroads share advice on how to support people on the spectrum, especially when emotional or behavioral challenges arise alongside a diagnosis.
For people with autism, the world can be overwhelming and so can their emotions. Symptoms can sometimes look different in those with autism, but generally, they are the same.
Some services at Easterseals Crossroads include learning group activities, which Dreith says can improve mental health and reduce social anxiety. Dreith says gaming is a huge help with forming relationships and promoting a better mindset.
Easterseals Crossroads offers assessments, counseling and therapy tailored to children and teens with autism. They recommend starting as early as possible and checking in often.
